I just love to write about new music. I hope someone out there enjoys it.

I would say the last 10-15 years of their career is where you'll find their best material. Their '90s stuff is pretty all over the place—in good and bad ways—but once the 2000s hit they figured out how to be heavy, fast, and (sometimes) catchy.

Because you love me.

Yep. That's how I got here.

That record feels like the end of an era to me. It was when the Fireside was still running, and it was before a lot of those smaller bands collapsed and the bigger ones took off. Oh! Calcutta! really kickstarted something that was less localized but no less potent.

You are David Anthony.

Me?

And the best of them all. Well, equal to Milo.

Such a jam.

This might be the greatest compliment I've ever received!

It's nice to know I'm as repellent as I always assumed.

It was so incredibly bad. The way the buffalo wing one stings your sinuses/throat is so overwhelming.

I did. It was cut for some reason.

And that's all that matters. Well, Tenement and All Dogs.

For real. Basically anything Yemin does I'm sold on. Well, maybe not the early Lifetime stuff, but still.

Wrote about that for a different Hear This theme, actually.

Thanks for letting me know I fucked it up. I was really hoping to please you when I got them.

And I've got that on lock so what's even the point?

Or even Ink & Dagger. The Fine Art Of Original Sin is about as close to TSOPTC as anyone ever got and that happened in the same year.

It's a good record, but one that feels slightly dated now. That's not to dismiss it, as that record has some killer tracks, but it's hard not to listen to it and think, "Yeah, this is a '90s hardcore record." And for the amount of those that I think have held up, it just doesn't hit that sweet spot for me like it once…
